The posting

Join our global force of 400+ innovators, blending the latest in tech with the greatest in soundtracking, from our Stockholm HQ to offices in London, New York, Los Angeles, Berlin, Paris, Oslo, and Seoul. We’re an industry leader with a startup mentality. We take what we do seriously, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. Creating and collaborating to transform the sound of streaming, content, and culture. Come join us, and let the world feel your work

We are looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to lead our Sound Solutions team, focused on using AI to intelligently adapt music for real-world creative use. This is an impactful leadership role where you will be accountable for people, delivery, and technical direction, shipping and scaling AI-powered music adaptation capabilities that make a real difference to how creators experience sound.

You’ll lead a team of Machine Learning Engineers and Software Engineers who own both the models and the backend services that put them in creators’ hands. You’ll work with a Product Manager and alongside data platform, MLOps, and product engineering teams.

What you'll do

- Lead the team in taking AI models from training to live production, including real-time inference, and keep them reliable as usage grows.

- Own the team’s technical direction and prioritization, balancing model quality, speed, and cost, in partnership with your PM.

- Shape the team’s model strategy with your ML engineers: evaluate models, open-source solutions, and vendor offerings, and decide what is worth pursuing.

- Build a high-ownership team culture through mentorship and honest feedback, growing engineers across ML and software.

- Partner with data, MLOps, and product engineering teams to integrate our AI into the creator experience, including the backend services behind it.

What we're looking for

- Significant engineering leadership experience, with a track record of managing and growing teams across ML and software engineering that ship ML systems into production.

- A solid practical understanding of the ML lifecycle (training, evaluation, deployment) and the current AI landscape, including fine-tuning on domain-specific data. You don’t need to be the most experienced ML engineer on the team, but you can follow the technical details, ask sharp questions, and evaluate models critically.

- You’ve built and shipped production software, ideally ML-powered services, and can credibly lead engineers who build backend services.

- Experience scaling an ML-powered product or tooling as usage grew (more users, latency, cost, reliability).

- The ability to set clear direction and keep a team focused when the path isn’t always obvious.

- A product mindset. You ask whether we’re solving a real user problem, and you work closely with product to prioritize what matters most to creators.

- Experience with audio, music, or related domains is a plus - but curiosity about the space and a track record in technically ambitious environments matters most.

Equal opportunity employer We believe that bringing people together from different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives makes for a healthy workplace, a more successful business and a better world. We value diversity and encourage everyone to come and soundtrack the world with us.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
